According to the method above described by two embodiments of the method, below citing is described in further detail.In the present embodiment, RNC will be specially for base station controller to be described.

This interference management method specifically can be divided into three phases to implement, as described below.

(1) first stage: Home eNodeB selects RNC, and initiates register flow path to report log-on message.

1, Home eNodeB selects RNC:

In family's base station range, the cell signal of one or more same frequency or alien frequencies or different system may can be detected.After Home eNodeB start, descending detection can be carried out, to obtain essential information and the signal quality of these communities.Simultaneously optional, now Home eNodeB can select the frequency that disturbs minimum frequency as this Home eNodeB, and the frequency that configured also can be used as the frequency of this Home eNodeB.

After the frequency that the base station selected good frequency of family or use have configured, the same frequency macrocell RNC that Home eNodeB selects signal the strongest according to the signal quality of each community detected initiates register flow path.

2, Home eNodeB initiates register flow path to report log-on message to RNC:

Home eNodeB directly initiates register flow path by idle message to RNC, and the log-on message reported comprises essential information and other information of Home eNodeB.Wherein, the essential information of Home eNodeB can comprise the transmitting power of Home eNodeB and/or the main scrambler of Home eNodeB and/or access module and/or access control lists; The positional information of other adjacent cell signal qualitys that the macro-cell signals quality that other information comprise the time difference information of this Home eNodeB and macrocell, Home eNodeB receives and/or Home eNodeB receive to circuit loss value and/or the Home eNodeB of macrocell and/or Home eNodeB, etc.

The macro-cell signals Mass Calculation that RNC can receive according to the transmitting power of macrocell and Home eNodeB goes out circuit loss value, and the circuit loss value then reported according to this circuit loss value or Home eNodeB and other information of Home eNodeB position Home eNodeB; Or, the positional information that RNC also can report according to Home eNodeB, such as GPS locating information locates Home eNodeB, etc.

Optionally, RNC, after receiving the login request message of Home eNodeB, can judge whether there is interference to this macro base station according to the transmitting power of Home eNodeB, and directly adjust the transmitting power of Home eNodeB by registration reply message.

In addition, when the log-on message of Home eNodeB changes, also by updating message, the log-on message of renewal can be informed to RNC.

(2) second stage: terminal to report is measured, and determines interference source Home eNodeB.

When terminal is near Home eNodeB, common measurement (see prior art) is carried out, to obtain metrical information to Home eNodeB.The positional information etc. of Home eNodeB that this metrical information can comprise the main scrambler of the Home eNodeB measured and/or the time difference information of the signal quality measured and/or the Home eNodeB measured and macrocell and/or measure, wherein, positional information can be specifically various locating information, such as GPS locating information etc.Such as, can be as described below.

When the signal of terminal determination Home eNodeB exceedes pre-determined threshold, the information such as the main scrambler of this Home eNodeB and/or the time difference of signal quality and/or Home eNodeB and macrocell will be obtained, then by these information reportings to RNC.Wherein, pre-determined threshold can set according to the demand of practical application.

RNC can determine according to the log-on message reported when these metrical informations and registering family base station interference source Home eNodeB specifically which.

Such as, RNC can by the main scrambler of the Home eNodeB measured in metrical information, and/or the signal quality measured, and/or the time difference information of the Home eNodeB measured and macrocell, and/or the positional information of the Home eNodeB measured, with the main scrambler of the Home eNodeB in log-on message, and/or the macro-cell signals quality that Home eNodeB receives, and/or the time difference information of this Home eNodeB and macrocell, and/or the positional information of Home eNodeB carries out mating to determine target household base station, and then determine whether this target household base station is interference source Home eNodeB according to the access module in log-on message and access control lists, or, also can according to access module, macrocell Neighboring Cell List, and the ability of terminal determines whether this target household base station is interference source Home eNodeB, such as, if the access module of this target household base station is closed mode, and this target household base station is not at macrocell Neighboring Cell List, and terminal does not support close subscriber group (CSG, ClosedSubscriberGroup), then determine that this target household base station is interference source Home eNodeB, otherwise, then represent that terminal can be linked in this target household base station, RNC does not carry out power adjustment to this target household base station, namely the step of phase III is not performed.Again such as, if the access module of this target household base station is closed mode, and represent in access control lists and do not allow this terminal to access, then determine that this target household base station is interference source Home eNodeB, otherwise, then represent that terminal can be linked in this target household base station, RNC does not carry out power adjustment to this target household base station, does not namely perform the step of phase III.

(3) phase III: interference management flow process.

RNC carries out power adjustment to interference source Home eNodeB, and such as, RNC can use the transmitting power of power control commands to Home eNodeB to adjust by space interface signaling, or, also directly transmitted power can adjust signaling to Home eNodeB to carry out power adjustment.Certainly, before adjusting, paging can be carried out to Home eNodeB.

Now, Home eNodeB, while the Terminal for service for this community, also needs to accept relevant power control commands that RNC issues or power adjustment signaling, and lowers transmitting power according to these power control commands or power adjustment signaling.

Optionally, after RNC finds that terminal leaves this interference source Home eNodeB, can also notify that this interference source Home eNodeB recovers original power.Or, if RNC is when carrying out power adjustment to this interference source Home eNodeB, also send to temporal information to this Home eNodeB, and this temporal information comprises recovery time, then now Home eNodeB also can recover transmitting power according to temporal information voluntarily, namely, when arriving recovery time, original watt level is recovered.

According to the method for foregoing description, the following specific examples will be described in detail.

See Fig. 3 a, there are macrocell 1 and macrocell 2 two macrocells in network, wherein, the RNC of macrocell 1 is RNC1, the RNC of macrocell 2 is RNC2, and also comprise Home eNodeB 1, Home eNodeB 2 and Home eNodeB 3 in network, Home eNodeB 1 is positioned at the overlapping region of macrocell 1 and macrocell 2; Current, terminal A is just near Home eNodeB 1.
